C277 – New Route

Posted on October 10, 2018 by AzureOrchid92

In just a breath of time, Hong Xi who was originally standing on the ground like everyone was now trapped in the ground up to his waist.

At first, in front of Shao Xuan, a few people wanted to fight. After listening to the thundering sounds, they felt that the next hit seemed to be smashed in their own bodies, feeling the numbness in their scalps.

This here… This guy has a fist for a hammer! Did it hurt? Was his hand bones not broken? Why not use a knife? Shao Xuan was not wearing a knife?

Why not use a knife?

A few people like Huang Ye clearly knew that, if Shao Xuan used a knife, Hong Xi would already be dead.

When Shao Xuan stopped, Hong Xi was still kept in the posture of holding the knife, stuck in there.

Shao Xuan turned to Huang Ye and the other two and asked, “Is this ok?”

Huang Ye uttered incoherently, “Well…”

“What I meant was, am I eligible to participate now?” Shao Xuan continued to ask.

“Yes,” Huang Ye replied

“Oh, then see you.”

After saying that, Shao Xuan lifted his foot and left.

Gu Zhi felt the stare of Huang Ye and Qiu Gu and felt his face turn red. Earlier, he reminded Hong Xi to ‘pay attention to the sense of propriety’.

The people of the Feather tribe hurriedly pulled Hong Xi out. Gu Zhi’s wide and thick stone knife that blocked the hits was still hot.

After check Hong Xi’s body for injuries, they noticed it was not too heavy, but it was still miserable since a slight movement was painfully felt all over his muscles.

“Hong Xi, you should have the blade facing up just now, you can definitely block it! Maybe, when the boy’s fist was punched down, he would have been cut off by the knife.” Someone couldn’t help but say it.

“Yes, yes, and then, you should…”

“Shut up!” Hong Xi’s forehead had his veins showing as he roared, “You are so stupid. With the blade?! Or do you think Shao Xuan is stupid, not knowing how to avoid the blade? If I had a chance, would I still be beaten like this?! Right, the boy has not gone far. You use the knife then, and continue to fight!”

The others did not speak.

Although Hong Xi’s own weapon was not a knife, it didn’t mean that he didn’t even know how to use it. The fight might look simple, but, really facing it at that the time, he felt that the pressure was different. At that time, Hong Xi had a kind of illusion that he was facing a fierce beast from the forest.

When he was blocking his opponent’s attack, he felt that the bones of his hands would be broken, and even turning the hilt was difficult. His momentum was suppressed. Power suppression plus enough speed, Hong Xi knew that his defeat was not unjustified. He should not have gone first in the beginning and remained passive, so he wouldn’t have lost so stupidly.

“I know I should have used my weapon.” Hong Xi struggled with the knife and walked to Gu Zhi to hand it over, then angrily said, “I’m good. I’ll fight again next time! Next time, I’ll use my own weapon!” He was silent for a while, then added, “I can’t afford to lose. Knowing my own strength, I knew it has not played out!”

“Hey–”

Qu Ce couldn’t help but laugh.

“What are you laughing about?” Hong Xi glared at the other person.

“Your bird’s hair was gone.” Qu Ce pointed his finger as he spoke.

Hong Xi’s complexion was red. “Qu Ce, you wait, wait for me to find and hurt you!”

Not concerned about how many young people there quarrel, Huang Ye on the side of Gu Zhi and Qiu Gu sighed, “I now believe that one of the Di Shan tribe leader was killed by him.”

Before this, these three people had heard rumors that the Di Shan tribe leader had been killed by a young man with an eagle from the Flaming Horns tribe. But they did not believe it because rumors were ninety-nine percent exaggerated and absurd. Not to mention that it was the Flaming Horns tribe in the hot debate. So they were not serious about the news that they heard at that time.

But now, it was very likely that it really was Shao Xuan.

“Hey!” Gu Zhi tapped on his forehead, “I forgot to ask the kid, see if he knows about the two missing birds.”

Not informing the Flaming Horns tribe, they secretly entered with two birds as spies. Anyone would be suspicious of ther motives. In this case, once the strange suspicious birds were found, the possibility of being directly shot to kill was great.

“How to ask them?” Gu Zhi was very distressed. The two birds he had trained for a long time and were rarely caught in the past, this time, might have been unexpectedly caught. There seemed to be a lot of secrets hidden in this tribe.

The next day, the chief of the Flaming Horns tribe, Ao went to find the three people. When the three of them looked, they saw two dying birds on the stone table. The look on the faces of the tribal warriors around them only made Huang Ye feel an incoming headache.

“How come we don’t see Shao Xuan?” Qiu Gu turned to ask.

“He had something else to do.” Ao did not intend to say more.

Huang Ye swept a circle. In addition to Shao Xuan, the two team leaders were also not present. What the hell was going on? Forget it, no matter what they do, as long as they do not directly fight the Wanshi tribe.

Ao ignored Huang Ye’s doubts, and just stared at the two birds and the people of the Feather tribe.

On the other hand, early in the morning, Shao Xuan together with Ta, Gui He and other members of the tribe left the tribe and went to the Ferocious Beast Mountain Forest.

Not far from the border of the tribe, there was a team of more than ten people waiting, and on their side were a few fierce beasts of the tribe that had not appeared in the past few days.

The Shaman felt that these fierce animals were idle. Since this time, they had to go to the depths of the forest, the team might as well take them so that they do not stay in the tribe for too long or their fierceness might go away. For a fierce beast, more fierceness was better.

“Are all of us here?” Shao Xuan looked at the people around him and asked.

“We’re all here.” Gui He Said.

Ta also nodded.

“Then, let’s go!”

More than fifty figures followed Shao Xuan to the depths of the mountain forest.

Around these fifty figures were also some running shadows of beasts.

Some of the roads they took were also where Shao Xuan passed previously. He could tell them on the way what beasts they needed to pay attention to, what were the dangerous animals and plants in this forest. However, there were some sections he did not walk through.

The last time Shao Xuan was in forest, his first direction was what Chacha had shown him, then he changed it halfway. When he went back, it was from the location of the stone. This time, as they had to start from the tribe, in order to quickly get the ancestors’ remains and the Flaming Horns tribe’s “history” for the last thousands of years, they moved along an almost straight path.

There were many unknown dangers, more unpredictable beasts and harsh environments, but they were fearless. For such an environment, they had lost the fear of the other tribes. Some were just excited of the challenge, as well as feeling the perseverance and urgency to bring back the ancestors and their “history”.

At the same time, this road was likely to become their new hunting route in the future.

They did not decide on a new hunting route when they returned to their old home. Now, the ancestors’ affairs helped them to solve this problem. Perhaps it was a sign from the ancestors too.

In that year, the ancestors had certainly often gone this way. Now, after the people of the Flaming Horns tribe finally returned, they will take this road again and tell the forest that the people who left that year are back.

The sounds of stones slashing was endless, the splashing blood was full of suffocating murderousness, the screams of the mountain behemoths were deafening, while the frightened birds screamed and flew in the direction of the setting sun.

Under the twilight, blue sky, the road stained with blood was indomitable.

Note: Aww.. That “tell the forest that the people who left that year are back” made me cry..
